  • Some inequalities for quantum f-divergence of matrices are obtained. It is shown that for normalised convex functions it is nonnegative. Some upper bounds for quantum f-divergence in terms of variational and ${\chi}^2-distance$ are provided. Applications for some classes of divergence measures such as Umegaki and Tsallis relative entropies are also given.

  • In order to apply Kriging methods for geostatistics of spatial data, an estimation of spatial coherency functions is required priorly based on the spatial distance between measurement points. In the study, the typical coherency functions, such as semi-variogram, homeogram, and covariance function, were estimated using the national geoid model. The test area consisting of 2°×2° and the Unified Control Points (UCPs) within the area were chosen as sampling measurements of the geoid. Based on the distance between the control points, a total of 100 sampling points were grouped into distinct pairs and assigned into a bin. Empirical values, which were calculated with each of the spatial coherency functions, resulted out as a wave model of a semi-variogram for the best quality of fit. Both of homeogram and covariance functions were better fitted into the exponential model. In the future, the methods of various Kriging and the functions of estimated spatial coherency need to be studied to verify the prediction accuracy and to calculate the Mean Squared Prediction Error (MSPE).

  • Purpose: This study was to find the correlation between exophthalmetry and visual functions. Methods: Exophthalmetry and visual functions of 200 adults without ophthalmophathy and general disease were examined. Exophthalmetry were measured with Hertel's exophthalmometer. Visual functions (myopia, distance exophoria, near exophoria, near point of convergence, near point of accommodation) were measured for three times. Results: The exophthalmetry was $13.59{\pm}1.10mm$. Myopia, distance exophoria, near exophoria, near point convergence, and near point accommodation were measured as $-2.48{\pm}1.91D$, $3.51{\pm}1.78{\Delta}$, $5.73{\pm}2.44{\Delta}$, $9.63{\pm}2.82cm$, and $21.73{\pm}10.28cm$. With increasing exophthalmetry, the unaided visual acuity, myopia and astigmatism were decreased. On the other hand, distance exophoria, distance esophoria, near exophoria, near point of convergence and near point of accommodation were significantly increased, while exophthalmetry was increased. Conclusions: The relationship between visual functions and exophthalmetry were found to be statistically significant. It could be used as the clinical criteria for prescription of binocular inspections.

  • In order to estimate characteristics and functions of multi hole focusing type collimator, the authors measured the sensitivity and resolution varing with the distance between the face of collimator and source by experimental study. The results obtained with this study are as follows. 1. In comparison with focal distance obtained fram sensitivity measurement of various multi hole focusing type collimator, collimator A, C, E was 10 cm and collimator B, D was 12 cm in focal distance. 2. In regard of resolution of collimators having 10 cm focal distance, collimator A showed the finest resolutions than any other collimator(C, E). 3. By comparison regarding sensitivity by focal dist ante, the shorter the distance than a give focal distance of collimator, the worse the sensitivity of collimator. 4. With regard to resolution by focal distance, the shorter the distance than a given focal distance of collimator, the worse the resolution of collimator.

  • In this paper, an efficient algorithm for recognizing and positioning occuluded objects in a two-dimensional plane is presented. Model objects and unknown input image are approximated by polygonal boundaries, which are compactly represented by shape functions of the polygons. The input image is partitioned into measningful segments whose end points are at the locations of possible occlusion - i.e. at concave vertices. Each segment is matched against known model objects by calculating a matching measure, which is defined as the minimum euclidean distance between the shape functions. An O(mm(n+m) algorithm for computing the measure is presentd, where n and m are the number of veritces for a model and an unknown object, respectively. Match results from aprtial segments are combined based on mutual compatibility, then are verified using distance transformation and translation vector to produce the final recognition. The proposed algorithm is invariant under translation and rotation of objects, which has been shown by experimental results.

  • In this paper, a pattern spectrum component function is introduced for an oriented shape analysis and its properties are discussed. It can represent directional information of shape more precisely than the conventional oriented pattern spectrum. An adaptive distance function between two pattern spectrum component functions is presented to recognize different shapes in noise. As a practical application, the pattern spectrum component function is applied to warning traffic sign recognitions utilizing the adaptive distance functions. Favorable results are obtained compared to the oriented pattern spectrum.

  • Molecular dynamic method has been applied to a single polymer chain immersed in a solvent. The interactions for the pairs, of two solvent molecules (SS), of a chain element and a solvent molecules (CS), and of two non-neighbor chain elements (CC) are given by the Lennard-Jones potential, and the interaction between two bonded chain elements is given by a harmonic potential. We changed the CS interaction parameter ${\varepsilon}_{CS}$ to 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 times of the SS interaction ${\varepsilon}_{SS}$. We calculated the pair correlation functions for the SS, CS, and CC pairs, end-to-end distance and radius of gyration with the varying ${\varepsilon}_{CS}$ parameters. The results showed that a phase separation occurs between the polymer and solvent in the 0.5 system where ${\varepsilon}_{CS}$ = 0.5 {\varepsilon}_{SS}$. The autocorrelation functions for end-to-end distance and radius of gyration were also calculated.

  • Due to advances in hardware performance, user-friendly interfaces are becoming one of the major concerns in information systems. Linguistic conversation is a very natural way of human communications. Fuzzy techniques have been employed to liaison the discrepancy between the qualitative linguistic terms and quantitative computerized data. This paper deals with linguistic queries using clustering results on data sets, which are intended to retrieve the close clusters or distant clusters from the clustering results. In order to support such queries, a fuzzy technique-based method is proposed. The method introduces distance membership functions, namely, close and distant membership functions which transform the metric distance between two objects into the degree of closeness or farness, respectively. In order to measure the degree of closeness or farness between two clusters, both cluster closeness measure and cluster farness measure which incorporate distance membership function and cluster memberships are considered. For the flexibility of clustering, fuzzy clusters are assumed to be formed. This allows us to linguistically query close or distant clusters by constructing fuzzy relation based on the measures.
